Artist’s description from DA:

Once upon a time, I was thinking of ideas for a new profile picture for the Facebook page I run of this pony, and the only thing I really wanted to have for it was the 3Q angle of a stallion’s head showing both eyes.  As far as the show was concerned, and with what instances I knew from memory of the fairly elusive 3Q stallion face with both eyes open with a full body, it wasn’t enough, and instead I thought back to the Royal Wedding Poster and its corresponding vector collab.

What I’ve done here is trace the stallions from the poster scan and their different head/foreleg variations and put together what I thought would personally work for a profile picture, even though I knew just the head would be visible.  In the end the only change I made was the head, and left the other variations aside.  The work vectoring the rest of the body didn’t go to the waste though, as I proceeded to recolor it into three other relatively popular earth ponies that share this design but don’t necessarily have vectors that have this head angle.
